About the original
The RIMOWA Original Trunk Plus is an 82-liter aluminum-magnesium alloy hard-shell suitcase with the brand's parallel grooves, a Multiwheel system for 360-degree rolling, dual TSA-approved combination locks, and a Flex-Divider interior that adjusts for suit or stacked-clothing carry. RIMOWA has manufactured aluminum luggage in Cologne, Germany since 1898, and the Original Trunk traces directly to the company's pre-war grooved design introduced in 1937 after a factory fire forced a switch from wood to aluminum. The SS2018 Supreme collab kept the standard aluminum construction and added a single red-on-silver printed box logo beside the handle. It retailed at $1,800, $650 below the standard trunk price.
About RIMOWA
RIMOWA is a German luggage manufacturer founded in 1898 by Paul Morszeck and Heinrich Görtz in Cologne, initially producing wooden trunks. Paul's son Richard registered the Rimowa trademark, an acronym for Richard Morszeck Warenzeichen, in 1931, and introduced the first riveted duralumin aluminum suitcase in 1937. The signature parallel-groove case debuted in 1950, and the brand later pioneered lightweight polycarbonate luggage in 2000. Now owned by LVMH, RIMOWA cases are handcrafted in Cologne and assembled from more than 90 steps. Supreme released a co-branded RIMOWA Topas Multiwheel aluminum suitcase for Spring/Summer 2018.
